Brown Family

Ashley and Adam had a baby on Thursday, November 13.  They named her Addison Gene Poston.  She weighed 7 lbs 12 ozs.  I drove up to Utah on Monday and have been here as the new Grandma.  It is a wonderful new role.  

We recently received these pictures of Parker and his companion Elder Wong. Elder Wong just got home from his mission and lives in Hong Kong. He posted these pictures on to people he knew. J's wife Christy knew Elder Wong when she lived in Hong Kong and she forwarded them on to us. Small World!

We made Rachel a mummy costume this year for Halloween.  She entered the town costume contest and won most original.  She won a gift certificate to Western Drug and China Garden.  When Parker was little, he was a mummy one year.  But, his costume consisted of toilet paper.  He left a trail behind at each house.  We have improved our mummy making skills somewhat.  Rachel was a pirate for her school party.  What a fun holiday.

Taylor's Physics Class Taylor made a boat using only cardboard and glue. He and his partner won the race and stayed afloat for 25 minutes

It has been an interesting year. Our team started the season with high ambition, talented players and a lot of enthusiasm. Problems plagued the team anywhere from injuries to drug suspensions. But, the season has been successful for Morgan and Taylor. They have enjoyed it! Round Valley vs Holbrook October 11, 2008. Taylor #11, Morgan #15

Rachel finished AYSO soccer this season. She had a lot of fun. In one game she scored 3 goals. She ran off the field with her hands high in the air, as if she just won the World Cup! Madison Nicoll and Rachel

We recently went to Greens Peak to see the beautiful fall colors. It has been a tradition in our family to go to Greens Peak around Parker's birthday. We climb the fire tower and get a glimpse of the whole world. This year there was snow on the ground, amidst the colorful changing leaves.
